RA Friedman: The Trouble I’ve Seen: Drawings from The Covid-19 Portrait Project, USA
On the two-year anniversary of the pandemic, RA Friedman’s exhibition The Trouble I’ve Seen: Drawings from The Covid-19 Portrait Project seeks to honor and memorialize the thousands of Americans lost to the virus. Working from obituary and family provided photographs, Friedman, along with artists he’s invited to collaborate, has drawn portraits of COVID-19 victims as a means of documentation and artistic dialogue. Presenting masterful drawings, large-scale imagery, and installation, Friedman gives voice to the voiceless and ensures that those lost are not forgotten.

About the Artist: RA Friedman is an accomplished artist whose work involves the interplay between the objectivity of the camera and the subjectivity of the hand made. Adept at photography, drawing, and recrafting older technologies, Friedman’s work melds the human figure’s ability to convey intimate and complex states of being with the expressiveness of mark-making and time-based discovery. Deeply introspective as well as collaborative, his work gives voice to our personal, artistic, and collective histories. For more information on RA Friedman’s work: http://www.rafriedman.com/pandemic
